(1/8) > >>

Pablo011:
I know lots of peeps have Auto and Manual disco but when going off road is it better to have an Auto box Or Manual, I mean normal driving I like auto but for off road ???

Thanks

Paul

lambert:
My 90 is manual and has the advantage of engine braking on steep hills but everywhere else i would sooner it be auto. I may end up swapping it if this box dies.

LandRoger:
Auto for me! You just have to look at what the rockcrawling guys use in USA/AUS  i know they have crawler transfer gears but none the less there still Auto,s , i was quite worried about useing an Auto offroad at first but my worries were unfounded ,

Pablo011:
So I take it the auto box works well with Diff lock, and Hi and lo ranges ??


Thanks

Paul

James.Harwood:
on the p38 no problems with diff lock as it doesn't have it. In low box you can use it as a manual by pressing the sport mode button. Do still prefer manual off road as i prefer to 'drive' off road using driver skill rather than electronics (ok on a p38 when electronics are working)....
